Default Featherweights Need to Exercise too! Apr 29 - May 6
Would you skip a day of exercising if you knew some fellow posters were following your progress?
If you promised in this thread to lift weights twice this week ... could you miss one day?
That's either accountability or blackmail
Either way ... let's move Featherweights!

How about six walks and two lifting days? That sounds familiar but not much like what I actually did last week

Hi Susan!
Either accountability or blackmail

I got in 3.75 hours of workouts last week - more than usual.
Also got a row of flowers into the flower bed!

My workouts are T-Tapp videos/DVDs at home, and I'm aiming for 3 full workouts per week (or putting in about 2.5 hours/wk).

Sunday - Basic Workout
Monday -
Tuesday - Basic Workout
Wednesday -
Thursday - Baxic Workout
Friday -
Saturday -

Wow that's massive!

Well, this thread finally guilted me into joining up and moving my butt off the sofa. I've added a formal exercise ticker for cardio and a bit of weights. I don't add walking onto that even though I do a lot of it. Oh well, at least this ticker's moving

I did some abs but that doesn't really count toward anything I've set down in print. I guess I'd better get my running shoes out on the sidewalk after supper.

i cannot completely commit what days I will be doing weights as TOm is comming and I cannot do floor exercise or weights that day (I am too heavy on my first day) but I will commit to 3 days this week for sure just cannot say with certainty wich ones.

Sunday~ 1 Hour and 15 mins(free weights, floor exercises ,cardio and walking)
Monday ~ 1 hour (30 mins cardio and walking)
Tuesday ~
Wednesday ~
Thursday ~
Friday ~
Saturday~

Forgot to mention My Dhs uncle is giving me his weights he doesn't use them anymore and I need to buy heavier ones. They are the ones with a bar and you can increase or decrease the weight as you want.

I'm doing the Extreme Fat Smash Plan right now, so I have to exercise a lot. I don't mind, though. I enjoy exercising and it's preparing me for my spring/summer race training.

Lets see - last week 33.1 miles running, one yoga class. Kids too sick to take to the gym for weights

Ran 3.5 yesterday and have my killer trail run tonight.
